Description

We've all seen the bumper sticker: WWJD? What would Jesus do? It's an intriguing question, but let's take it a step further. A quarter of the Earth's population believes in reincarnation. What if Jesus Christ reincarnated and walked among us as an ordinary guy? What would he think about our crazy, materialistic society? What would he do? Where would he go? What would he tell us? What did we get right? What did we get wrong? Would he be hailed as a hero or shunned as a cult leader? Would he be worshipped as a god or crucified all over again? But let's go even further afield. What if you learned, through hypnotic regression, that in your past life, you were Jesus Christ? Think about it. What if you started remembering incidents from that famous lifetime and what if it didn't exactly match up with the stories in the Bible? How would you deal with that? What would you tell the world? How would people treat you? How would it affect your family, your relationships, your love life? How would you deal with the enormous implications of that? In this riveting novel, Biker Mike Tomson works as an ordinary rock and roll singer in Las Vegas until a hypnosis demonstration becomes a near-fatal accident. Now, his near-death experience and hypnosis sessions gone awry have awakened what seem to be "past-life memories" of Jesus Christ, memories that conflict with popular Christian belief. But can he trust these memories? Now he is faced with two possibilities: either he's losing his mind--a victim of implanted psychosis--or he really is the reincarnation of Jesus and must deal with the weight of that. His memories threaten the very foundations of Christianity and his search for the truth plunges him deep into a sea of conflict. Now, struggling with self-doubt and intimate desire, he's caught between the expectations of fans who would worship him, the schemes of those who want him dead and the desires of the woman he loves. It sends him and the people around him on an emotional roller-coaster ride of ancient mysteries, modern secrets, sinister assassination plots, startling revelations and in the end, true love. The Gospel According to Mike is part religious fiction, part love story, and part new-age inspirational book.
